(A) Seven ecosystems with foundation species were sampled: coastal (seagrass, blue mussel, cordgrass), freshwater (watermilfoil, water-starwort) and terrestrial (Spanish moss, marram grass). (B) Food webs were constructed for both bare and foundation species-dominated replicate areas. (C) From each foundation species structured-food web, nodes (species) were randomly removed until the s…

Competition among members of the same species is known as intraspecific competition, while competition between individuals of different species is known as interspecific competition.

In an apparent competition model, this relationship is found to be mediated through predator C; a population explosion of species A increases the abundance of the predator species C due to a greater total food source.
